A source (now forgotten) indicated that the IBM software package
"PC 3270 Emulation Program, Version 3.0"
provides MS Windows compatible support for IBM's 3270 board. Further
research finds that this product has been replaced/renamed by
"PC Personal Communications/3270"
Can anyone confirm or deny this information?
Thanks in advance.

As to its compatability under MS-Windows I can't tell you but we do run both products on this campus and several differing versions of PC 3270 Emu.

Further >research finds that this product has been replaced/renamed by > "PC Personal Communications/3270" There is a new product called "IBM Windows Connection 2.0" which provides support for 3270 and 5250 connections. Interestingly, it the interface is via DDE rather than the standard HLLAPI that is provided for OS/2. Digital Communications Associates (IRMA) provides a HLLAPI interface and the other major package (whose name escapes me at the moment) provides a package that is sort of like HLLAPI, but breaks out the calls as individual subroutine calls that take a window handle in addition to the standard parameters. -- Bob Goodearl -- goodearl@world.std.com
